Swirly Seashell Scripture Cards

Five years ago I took four of my grandchildren (with parents and the other grandmother) on vacation to the ocean. It was so amazing to watch - and photograph - their delight with the entire experience. It was the first of four vacations which also included mountains, deserts, Yellowstone National Park, and the Grand Canyon. These were things I felt everyone should see in order to understand what an amazing world we live in. In two weeks their parents are taking them again to the same beach on Mustang Island for a repeat of what they considered to be their favorite vacation. I decided to give my daughter one of these cards with some souvenir money inside. I chose a CTMH scripture stamp from the retired set, "Look to the Light," to celebrate vacation rest from her busy schedule:

"Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28."

Thanks for visiting! As summer vacation arrives, may you also find rest and refreshment in Him!

Your cards are so wonderful Vicky, and I love the idea to give your daughter some souvenir money! I think memories, like your big trip with your family, are one of the most beautiful things we have. I've been to the US 14 years ago and I know that I will take my kids back (when they are a little older) to visit some of the most beautiful places I've seen there. Thank you for joining us over at the Rubber Dance challenge. xx Susanne.

I've been teaching ladies the art of stamping, scrapbooking, and card-making as an Independent Consultant for Close To My Heart since 2004.
